About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

Camp Arnold was named for Regimental Adjutant Captain John K. Arnold of the 7th Minnesota Infantry. It is the August 14, 1863 campsite used by the Sibley expedition on their return to Minnesota. Two soldiers from the expedition, James Ponford and Andrew Moore, died in camp on August 15, 1863.

This historic campsite is located four miles north of Oriska on ND-32. It does not have a formal marker however two headstones honor Ponford and Moore who are buried at this site.
